bearishgirl can you please provide me with a link to the data that supports what you wrote here:

“I was referring to the comments made by Piggs that because a portion of these “nonresident students” at LJHS qualified for “free or reduced-price lunches,” they must somehow be inferior in intelligence or test scores to resident-students. Actually, nothing could be further from the truth.”

As I posted above, the DoE separates API scores and has a line item for socio-economically disadvantaged kids and at LJHigh those kids’ API is much lower than the top groups’. I would like to see your supporting data to the contrary and am also still waiting for your data that shows that the incoming transfer students at the LJ schools are the “cream of the crop”. It would be awesome if you could just provide the data and then I can opt out of this issue – Thanks.
